what else an iPhone can’t do? it has a potential to become a POS machine (Point-of-Sale), a field microscope and now even journalists can use their iPhone to record interviews – in professional-quality. Blue Microphones‘ new Mikey is a professional-grade, pocket-size microphone that lets you record anything from concerts to lectures to interviews.
the Mikey 2.0 features three different gain settings which allows it to record in a variety of environment. the official website have several recording samples (recorded with different gain setting) which sounded promising. while microphone is important, software also plays a part in the final recording. the Mikey 2.0 features two custom-tuned Blue capsules for stereo recording and there’s a line-input which allows direct recording from other audio sources such as another iPod.
